    Is apparent bravery a way to now get away with obvious front on contact?  Happened numerous times against Frittata on Thursday and Tarrant just then got away with one.

    Definitely a shift in interpretation...and 'amazingly' the commentators are in synch with it 🤷‍♀️

    Has to be four week. Prestia out this week and next week, elbow to the head. Was knocked out on the ground by an elbow after the ball went well by. Didn’t need to do anything. If the AFL is serious you have to rub him out for twice what he cost the guy playing the ball.

    Stewart deserves four weeks for that! Horrific 

    No way he plays against us in 2 weeks.  I dont dislike him but that was bad.  3-4 surely

    That’s exactly what should happen but the sceptic in me says he’ll get one week - just enough time to freshen up before we play them the following week….

    Agree. He’s a great, and usually fair, player - but that was everything we’ve been told the AFL wants to get out of the game.

    Thought it was a shoulder. Will have a look again, but agree it is multiple weeks, as far worse than the Chandler tackle of a player with the ball, who got 2 as a result of concussion.

    You’re right. Just saw it and it was a shoulder braced to hit him flush in the head. It’s really, really bad.

    Replay was just on @Redleg.. i didn't see it...but blimey... some would call it an 'average act' as Garry just called it...others would call it something else.

    Just saw it. He’ll get 3-4 reduced to 2 I think. No way gets just 1 week for that, it’s actually the perfect example of what the AFL don’t want to see when you elect to bump. 

  • Quote

    The fox footy boys going after how poor it looked and there’s nothing Stewart can do but fall on his sword.

    Trial by media done. Minimum 3 weeks.

    Agreed, should have been a free against Lyons when he was injured the other night.

    And Stewart IN and us still belting them, would be even bigger.

    Let's not kid ourselves here, he will be IN against us, it's precisely how the AFL works, pure agenda driven tripe.

    My outrage about this has nothing to do with our draw. I’m outraged! We all should be outraged! It’s outrageous!

    The agenda actually demands weeks, to show they are serious in wanting to avoid head knocks.

    • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

      The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

      It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

      The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

      The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

      Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.
